OH MY GOSH!!! I love Dave Matthews!! Could anyone help me with finding the stencil that was used here?? Only if DeputyFife923 doesn't mind me using the idea! I have been looking for a stencil of him and I don't really know how to make one.

Thanks so much!! I think that satin stitching was exactly what I was looking for. The website gives a great overview about each of the stitches, but I was wondering if the satin stitch is just a very close and tight zig zag stitich. Thanks for all of the help!!

thanks for the advice! I think that I have discovered what I'm looking for...maybe. I think the term aplique is what I am wanting to do with my project. Does anyone know anything about how to do it or what it is exactly??

I have made a couple basic projects with ties and such, and I have been looking at projects that other people have made on different websites and noticed awesome embroidery that they use to decorate purses. Basically what I'm looking to do is make a shape, like a sun for example, in a different type fabric than the main project, and sew it to the fabric using a really thick outline of thread. I believe that this is some sort of embroidery, but as I am new to this, I could be wrong. I would love it if someone could help me with this. If my explanation is confusing I could try to post a better example of what I'm looking for.
